Web Design in Ballingeary for Beal Atha Trails, West Cork

Web design in Ballingeary for Beal Atha Trails in Gaeltacht Irish speaking village in West Cork

This web design in Ballingeary project was done for Béal Átha Trails funded by Sport Ireland and Government Supporting Communities. The website design project had to highlight the walking trails of this West Cork community and it was developed on a WordPress platform. Situated between Macroom and Bantry on the R584, Ballingeary is a Gaeltacht (Irish speaking) village in West Cork by the River Lee. Thus, the website needed to be bilingual, both in Irish and in English language.

The six walking trails had to be configured in Google My Maps both as a group and as individual loops. The Google My Maps was integrated with the website by embedding the code. The six walking trails had their own page with graphic maps and the assigned interactive map on the main website.

The logo was also redesigned and simplified, aligning it with the modern look of the theme. The headers use a parallax effect, hiding as you scroll down the page.

Web Design in Clonakilty for music brand Harpist Ireland

Web Design in Clonakilty for music brand Harpist Ireland

This summer opened in the rhythms of breezy harp music. Carys Ann Evans is a harpist for over 30 years based in Clonakilty, West Cork, performing at Wedding Ceremonies, Corporate Events, Private Functions and Cruise Ships. For this web design in Clonakilty, West Cork project, Carys needed a website redesign and a website transfer from her UK hosting to an Irish hosting service. Trust me, it was so pleasing to build harpist-ireland.com website while listening to harp.

The former website was developed on HTML with no possibility of self adding or editing content. This new web design in Clonakilty project required redesign on a WordPress platform with an easy system to manage her own content and to be responsive on all devices, especially on smartphones. Carys was thoughtful in integrating all the multimedia content for anybody interested in adding harp music to their weddings and events to easily find, view and listen to her music samples. The harpist-ireland.com website structured the content as to display weddings and events through photo galleries, harp music reviews through testimonial carousels, harp music samples in a “Look & Listen” portfolio with an embedded YouTube video playlist, an embedded Soundcloud audio album for Harp and a custom music album with songs that play directly on homepage. 

As for branding, I designed a logo inspired from one of her album photos taken by photographer Kate Bean. I sketched Carys pad & pencil playing harp, trying to get the flow of the harp and hands movement. Than I brought the sketch in Illustrator to vectorize it and added a typography style that has the pattern of the strings with elongated letters and curvaceous rhythm.

The logo was integrated in the website both coloured and negative output, and in a roll up design and flyer design printed at Inspire in Skibbereen.

Web Design in Skibbereen for Business IQ

Business IQ is the reason Digital Fox started its journey as a small business with website design, graphic design and digital media design services.

Shortly, Business IQ is a limited company based in Skibbereen, West Cork, that delivers empowering and impactful business training to help you start and grow your business. Among its clients, there are Local Enterprise Office, Enterprise Ireland and Cork County Council.

The partners from Business IQ needed a strong representative brand, starting from the logo and intial graphic symbols they had. In order to strenghten the brand and make it friendly, I sketched up in Illustrator a character that “shows the user’s way” through Business IQ’s services.

This web design in Skibbereen project needed a new website design with an ecommerce engine to sell their manuals and a user account for their trainers to log in and view their course materials.

The brief also included, PowerPoint and Prezi presentations for their tenders.

Moreover, the project included video & animation design for training small businesses in the “know hows” of setting up a new businesses and how to carry on with it in different stages of development.
